Patriots Injury Report: Multiple Key Starters Questionable For Colts Matchup

The Patriots could be without multiple key starters in Week 13.

New England listed nine players as questionable in its final injury report Friday. Cole Strange continues to work his way back from a knee injury, but the 2022 first-round pick was ruled out for Sunday. Head coach Jerod Mayo expressed confidence the offensive lineman would play before the season ended.

Jabrill Peppers was among the players who were questionable against the Indianapolis Colts. The safety returned to practice this week after he was reinstated off the commissioner’s list. Peppers was limited in practice with a knee injury, and his status is up in the air along with wide receiver DeMario Douglas and safety Kyle Dugger.

Here is the full injury report for Week 13.

The Colts ruled out four players for this Sunday, including wide receiver Josh Downs due to a shoulder injury. That means Drake Maye won’t get a chance to face off against his former North Carolina teammate. Indianapolis’ injury report was shorter than New England’s with only wideout Alec Pierce listed as questionable.

Kickoff at Gilette Stadium for Colts-Patriots is scheduled at 1 p.m. ET.
